ANTI HERO by Skye Warren

In the romance genre, there are tropes that each of us tend to stick with. For me, I love the heart wrenching reads and the dark and dirty reads, the sports stories and the taboo tropes. Rarely, however, do I find myself drawn to the suspense/action {I’m sure there’s a better name for it that I don’t even know} type romance novels. Last week, when I was looking for a few new releases to prep for my trip, ANTI HERO by Skye Warren kept popping up. I hadn’t read anything by her before, but the story sounded too good to pass up.

ANTI HERO is the story of Sofia + Nate. Sofia is a journalist hot on the trail of a scandal. Nate is a former soldier and Sofia’s former lover. Torn apart by things from their past, they now find themselves together again when Sofia’s life is threatened.

I know it’s not my usual go-to, but I was completely caught up in this story from beginning to end. It was fast paced, well plotted and well written. And the sex? The sex was seriously hot. The second chance romance aspect lent a solid tension between the two that wouldn’t have existed otherwise and it made this one unforgettable read.

I can’t say that I’ll download a dozen more suspense novels as a result, but ANTI HERO has definitely opened my eyes to something new in the genre I can add to my library.
